html - Position DIV relative to another DIV?

Question

Is it possible to position a DIV relative to another DIV? I imagine this can be done by first placing it inside of the reference DIV, and then using position: relative. However, I can't figure out how to do this without affecting the contents of the reference DIV. How can I do this properly?

Thanks! =)

Answer 1

First set position of the parent DIV to relative (specifying the offset, i.e. left, top etc. is not necessary) and then apply position: absolute to the child DIV with the offset you want.
It's simple and should do the trick well.
